The ghost of Glenn Gould plays again

Glenn Gould and his "re-performance" of the mono 1955 Goldberg Variations recording.

Stereo, surround and -- gasp -- binaural.

It's probably worth it just for the technical accomplishment.

Fascinating!

Interesting that there aren't too many people hitting this. You know that there was a "robot" piano recording with carbon rods dragging on a reel of paper that captured Mahler (and others)playing his (their) own compositions? There was a playback mechanism too. Someone restored one in the (70's?) and made some LP's.
